Digital Gauges & Spares

The term 'Digital' when applied to Faria Beede instruments relates to the way the signal from the engine/transmission is received and processed.

More and more engine manufacturers are supplying engines with an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to monitor their electronically controlled engines. The ECU acts as the central computer, gathering engine information and sending digital signals between the microcontrollers and microprocessor to achieve the engine's most efficient performance levels, and in doing so meeting required emission levels.

Protocol is the term which covers the high speed data codes that are used on the digital network, the most common protocols in use today are known as J1939, J1587, NMEA2000, and SmartCraft.

The systems we offer at A.S.A.P. Supplies are all 'Plug & Play' Faria Beede gauges are designed to give clear diagnostics information on the engine's system performance and warnings of any possible engine malfunctions.

We offer a comprehensive range of instruments to suit engines fitted with ECU systems, however not all of these are displayed on our website. If you require further information on some of the digital instrument systems we offer, please contact us.
